Well here it is all done with welding fixture
First one off turned out good need to tune it in a little
The bumper has the same top tube as the fl350 and grab Bar ( not a tow bar ) :)
there are two down brackets made out of 12ga steel bent on a 90 for strength
the flange can be drilled for a skid plate of your making
it has two hole for the stock Honda plastic and will need 1" spacers and new lower bolts
See pic's

Thanks SpeedChaser

P.S. I have not worked up a price yet but will be soon

Looks great speed. Is there going to be a skid plate option for those of us who no longer have the plastic skid, or the plastic skid has been destoyed?

Very nice.I like it flat as opposed to the earlier pic where the ends were turned up.

Nice fixture work too,that takes some time to figure out.

Looks good.

don't forget the optional flag tab as required by MI at the dunes, I know this has been requested in the past by Pilot Odyssey owners.
